Energy efficient tomato evaporator
Achieve up to 98% steam savings in your evaporation process while ensuring minimal CO2 emissions with our cutting-edge technology, designed to preserve product quality and enhance energy efficiency in liquid and slurry concentration.
Concentrates Liquid Foods with Minimal Energy Usage
The Apollo MVR Industrial Evaporator from CFT Group revolutionizes liquid food concentration by deploying advanced Mechanical Vapor Recompression (MVR) technology. Designed for efficient evaporation, it drastically minimizes steam consumption, achieving up to 98% steam savings. Ideal for processing tomato paste, fruit concentrates, and dairy products, it ensures high-energy performance with substantial CO2 emission reduction, benefiting both environmental and operational aspects. Capable of handling up to 1,800 tons per day, it integrates seamlessly into production lines with automatic operations and PLC control. Its robust stainless steel construction ensures durability and corrosion resistance, adding value to long-term processing reliability. Additionally, the system features a short product residence time, preserving the organoleptic properties of heat-sensitive products and offering enhanced product quality. With built-in CIP systems, it facilitates easy and efficient cleaning, supporting continuous high-speed operations with minimal downtime.
